*Remember Effect suggestions are my suggestions for the home player.  Usually suggestions are geared for a low budget.  I purposely use effects and equipment that I know everyone can afford, and get their hands on in an effort to prove that you can get a great sound without mortgaging your house.

Answer notes

For this problem I threw two loops at you.  I kept the very opening in the high register of the guitar, which often makes things hard for people to figure out.  I also changed direction on the main riffing portion as I was playing it.  Alternating direction on riffs often times will throw people off.  This riff seemed to be no exception to that little rule, based on the tabs that were sent in..

Enjoy the tabs and I'll give some additional tips on the video lesson for this problem of course.

TABs

The scales in use for this track example are, Aeolian, Dorian, Phrygian, Locrian, and Harmonic minor.

Our full scale is actually quite large and is made up of, A, Bb, B, C, D, Eb, E, F, F#, G, G#.  Basically 11 tones, using everything but the C#. 

On the video I left out Locrian and Aeolian.  I left out Aeolian because it's a given, and I left out Locrian by accident.  I forgot about the Eb, toward the end of the main riffing.
